Spray a coffee mug or ramekin with cooking spray.
Add all ingredients to mug and stir until combined into a batter-like consistency.
Microwave for 60-75 seconds. Then, let cool for 30 seconds. Batter should be mostly dry to the touch and have a cakey texture.
Enjoy with more chocolate chips or walnuts over top, if desired.*

*I also love serving this mug cake with regular or dairy-free whip cream over top to give it more of a pumpkin pie feel.
